Title: Nothing to exciting again Post by: wittsy1 on November 21, 2015, 08:57:38 AM Nothing to write home about but thought I would share my finds from yesterdays outing. The horse brass dates from about 1900 (I think) and has the number 185 stamped on the back. Don't know what the other patterned fragment is.

Johns just working himself up to take 2 dumpy bags to the tip ;D when it stops raining of course.
